    Affiliate marketing has intrigued more than PPC. I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction, for someone who knows close to nothing about affiliate marketing?

    Also, which do you believe is more profitable, adsense of affiliated.

    Ty. :)

    With my little knowledge, affiliate is much better but it is easier
    to start with adsense if you know nothing.

    With time and test you can switch to affiliate.

    But it also depends of your time and effort you will give to it.
    If you want to spend a lot of time you can start with affiliate :)

    Affiliate marketing more interesting than PPC??? You first need to understand what both of them are.

    PPC = Pay Per Click Traffic - a way to send targetted traffic to whatever you want (Adsense sites, ecommerce store, aff. offers).

    Affiliate Marketing = Driving traffic to affiliate offers to earn comissions.

    So you can use PPC in Affiliate marketing.

    It depends on the niche as to whether Adsense or Affiliate marketing is more profitable - but generally it is affiliate marketing if you choose a product focused niche. But that's not to say you can't use both.

    No reason to pick between them. Try both and see what is most profitable for you.

    To boost my confidence in earning money I would go for the easiest one first. Which is adsense, then try affiliate marketing.

    Me too! Since I am fairly new to this affiliate marketing, there is so many unknown avenues to go. Can a direction or path be provided by someone.

    Find a niche that interests you first of all...then take it from there...there are numerous ways to get started in affiliate marketing....

    What has worked for me has been joining affiliate networks to find programs to promote. If you are looking for a reliable network, you can find them in my sig at Relative Cash.

    If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message.

    My advice though, is definitely pick something that you enjoy and won't get sick of promoting.
